This handout picture obtained courtesy of Paragon Space Development Corporation shows Google executive Alan Eustace after setting the record for the highest space dive - 135,908 feet, or 41,000 meters high -- on October 24, 2014 in Roswell, New Mexico. The record dive by 57-year-old Eustace, a "senior vice president of knowledge" at Google, was conducted as part of the Stratospheric Explorer project to allow manned exploration of the stratosphere above 100,000 feet. According to a statement from the Paragon Space Development Corporation, Eustace completed the four-hour mission using a specially designed space suit and balloon module to carry him to the stratosphere.
